CALL FOR NOMINATIONS OF CANDIDATES FOR ELECTION TO IUAES EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (2013-18)
The IUAES revised statutes were accepted and published in December 2012 - see www.iuaes.org/org_stat.html. As per those statutes, a new IUAES Executive Committee is to be elected directly after the forthcoming IUAES World Anthropology Congress in Manchester (4-10 Aug 2013). All paid-up or honorary IUAES members are eligible to be nominated for election and/or to nominate other paid-up or honorary members; and all paid-up and honorary IUAES members will be entitled to vote once a candidates list has been prepared.
The present Executive Committee is now calling for nominees for the following positions on the new Executive Committee (details of responsibilities in the statutes at www.iuaes.org/org_stat.html)
a) President
b) Senior Vice President
c) Secretary General
d) Treasurer
e) Two to four elected Vice Presidents (to ensure continuity, two may be appointed by the present Executive Committee from amongst its most recently elected members)
In addition to the above, the new Executive Committee will include
* the Head and the Deputy Head of the newly formed Council of Commissions (both of whom will be elected by that Council during the forthcoming Congress);
* an ex-officio Vice President responsible for hosting the next (2018) World Congress (to be decided by the General Assembly during the 2013 Congress); and
* the immediate past President (advisory only - a non-voting member).
Nominations need to reach the present IUAES Secretary General, Junji Koizumi <[log in to unmask]> on or preferably before 31 July 2013.
As per the statutes, nominees must be paid-up or honorary professional members of the Union, must provide the Secretary General with a one-page Curriculum Vitae, highlighting previous service to the discipline, the Union and its Commissions, or to other professional anthropology or ethnology organizations, plus a one-page statement of intent detailing what they plan to achieve during their term in office. Nominees for President and Secretary General should also provide details about their ability to attend congresses regularly.
To become a nominee, a person must be nominated by four individual IUAES members from different countries, or by one group/corporate member of the Union.
Since all nominees and their nominators need to be paid-up (or honorary) members of the IUAES, as do all those voting, we call on all anthropologists across the world to sign up and pay their (very small) membership fees so that the IUAES can become truly representative of anthropology and anthropologists worldwide. To do that:
Please go to www.iuaes.org , click on MEMBERSHIP and Complete the ONLINE FORM (you will receive an emailed invoice for fees). Also http://www.nomadit.co.uk/iuaes/membershipform.php5?
